Prompt: "Wow."
(Disclaimer: good, old and boring married sex is mentioned in this chapter. A lot. There's also some very much casual nudity here. Not enough for it to be considered mature. At least, not in my opinion.)
She and Neil wake up a couple of hours before their alarm goes off, and for the first time in months, it's one of those mornings, and both of them end up having some spare time, and if Neil hadn't been so insistent about getting started on breakfast, both of them would be going for round three at this point.
(Between the two of them, Neil's the early riser and the cook, and married or not, the "Eva Rosalene-Watts isn't allowed to touch his stove" rule still stands, but in the end, Eva doesn't mind, especially not if it means spending some extra minutes in bed.)
For once, Eva doesn't care about any of it. At least, not in moments like these: both of them have time before needing to get up and head for work and right now, Eva's in bed, waiting for her husband and her coffee. She has just come off her high and is curled up around the blankets. The warmth is tempting and almost too much, almost as if it's calling her, and, for a moment, Eva struggles to stay awake.
The scent of coffee takes over, and Eva almost lets sleep claim her, but for a brief moment, she closes her eyes. Of course, it doesn't last: it becomes stronger, and from outside, she can hear Neil's heavy footsteps. It isn't until he's inside that Eva opens them
She can smell the scent of coffee, and for a brief moment, Eva closes her (heavy) eyes, but of course, it doesn't last. It becomes stronger, and from outside, she can hear Neil's heavy footsteps.
"Wow," She has her back to him, and all Neil can see as he enters their room is her legs and her long hair, as well as some parts of her body, and in the end, it doesn't surprise Eva: of course it's the first thing Neil notices, and of course it's one of the first things he says as soon as he lies his eyes on her, "Nice view."
"Men," Eva scoffs, but in the end, it doesn't stop her from smiling. Sitting up, her hand reaches out for the coffee mug Neil's offering her. She sips on it- half coffee, half cream, as well as the perfect amount of chocolate powder and some vanilla extract- and by her side, Neil makes himself comfortable on their bed. This time around, he can see all of her, and at that, he can't take it anymore: leaning closer to her, Neil drops a kiss on her forehead and Eva sighs in delight.
For the first time in his life, Neil's right. This is, indeed, the most beautiful sight he's ever had the pleasure of witnessing.
